È stata aperta un’inchiesta per appurare se la 46enne Barry si sia tolta la vita volontariamente. L’appartamento era chiuso dall’interno e in casa sono stati trovati dei farmaci antidepressivi. La fotografa aveva esposto le proprie opere fino allo scorso 20 novembre in una galleria parigina. Aveva collaborato con riviste famose come Elle e Vogue, ma anche il Sunday Times e il Telegraph. Kate Barry era nata nel 1967 dall’attrice inglese Jane Birkin e dal compositore John Barry, l’autore delle colonne sonore dei film di James Bond e “La mia Africa”. La coppia si separò nell’anno della sua nascita e la Barry fu allevata da Serge Gainsbourg, all’epoca compagno della madre e poi da Jacques Doillon, al quale la Birkin si legò quando lei aveva tredici anni. Oltre a Charlotte Gainsbourg, Kate Barry è anche la sorellastra di Lou Doillon. sorelle famose della storia vanessa bell e virginia woolf trio lescano loredana berte/mia martini le sorelle minogue sorelle bronte sorelle fontana beyonce/solange rosa balistreri // cu ti lu dissi malvina reynolds/little boxes Malvina Reynolds (San Francisco, 23 agosto 1900 – Berkeley, 17 marzo 1978) è stata una cantautrice e attivista statunitense, è conosciuta soprattutto come autrice della canzone Little BoxesMalvina Milder è nata a San Francisco da immigrati ebrei e socialisti oppositori alla seconda guerra mondiale, David e Abagail Milder. Malvina sposa William Reynolds, un carpentiere e fervente comunista nel 1934, dal quale ha una bambina, Nancy Schimmel (divenuta anch'essa cantautrice), nel 1935. Consegue una laurea e un master in lettere (inglese) all'Università della California, Berkeley, dove in seguito consegue anche un dottorato in filosofia, nel 1938. Reynolds was a folk singer-songwriter and political activist in the 1960s and 1970s. Nancy Reynolds, her daughter, explained that her mother came up with the song when she saw the housing developments around Daly City, California, built in the post-war era by Henry Doelger, particularly the neighborhood of Westlake. My mother and father were driving South from San Francisco through Daly City when my mom got the idea for the song. She asked my dad to take the wheel, and she wrote it on the way to the gathering in La Honda where she was going to sing for the Friends Committee on Legislation. When Time magazine (I think, maybe Newsweek) wanted a photo of her pointing to the very place, she couldn’t find those houses because so many more had been built around them that the hillsides were totally covered.[2] Reynolds' version first appeared on her 1967 Columbia Records album Malvina Reynolds Sings the Truth,[3] and can also be found on the Smithsonian Folkways Records 2000 CD re-issue of Ear To The Ground. However, Pete Seeger's rendition of the song is known internationally, and reached number 70 in the Billboard Hot 100. Seeger was a friend of Reynolds, also a political activist, and like many others in the 1960s he used folk songs as a medium for protest. Reception[edit] The profundity of the satire is attested to by a university professor quoted in Time magazine as saying, "I've been lecturing my classes about middle-class conformity for a whole semester. Here's a song that says it all in 1½ minutes."[4] The term "ticky-tacky" became a catchphrase during the 1960s, attesting to the song's popularity.[4] However, according to Christopher Hitchens, satirist Tom Lehrer described "Little Boxes" as "the most sanctimonious song ever written".[5] Peggy Lee - A Doodlin' Song PJ Harvey - Wang Dang Doodle "Wang Dang Doodle" is a blues song written by Willie Dixon for Howlin' Wolf at Chess Records in Chicago.

Robin Williamson has performed his own version, using the title and the same tune, but substantially new words. Dixon has also recorded it. Jimmy Sturr recorded a polka version of the song in later years. The Pointer Sisters' version of "Wang Dang Doodle" was released as the follow-up single to "Yes We Can Can" and was also released on their self-titled debut album. The single peaked at #24 on the R&B Singles chart and #61 on the Hot 100.

The Pointer Sisters were inducted onto the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The group had its early origins when sisters June and Bonnie Pointer began performing in clubs in 1969 as "Pointers, a Pair". The line-up grew to a trio when sister Anita Pointer joined them. They scored a record deal with Atlantic Records and released several unsuccessful singles. The trio grew to a quartet when sister Ruth joined in December 1972. They then signed with Blue Thumb Records, recorded their debut album, and began seeing more success. The group achieved its greatest commercial success as a trio during the 1980s consisting of the line-up of June, Ruth, and Anita. Bonnie had left the group in 1978 to commence a solo career with only modest success. singificato To a pitch a wang dang doodle is to have a good old fashioned Saturday night filled with drunken revelry, which may include but is not limited to fighting, dancing, singing and the like.
